Summary: Good realist perspective but...
Comment: Zakaria's insights seem relevant to the on-going debates on offensive/defensive realism. But he has very misguided views on defensive realism. "State-centered realism" is nothing new to the realists' general perspective on state-centered systemic determinism which even most of the defensive realists regard as essential. By combining US foreign policy history with his proclaimed theory - isn't he in fact making a case for defensive realism?
Rating: 4
Summary: Nicely done
Comment: Being a casual observer and student of affairs international - be it political,economic or foreign policy matters of nations- I must say that I enjoyed the book immensely. In my opinion it is well written, to the point and precise even though I didn't care too much for the 'theories' elicited in the book on the subject, everything else was fascinating and noteworthy.
Rating: 5
Summary: A provocative retelling of American history
Comment: Zakaria explains why America became a world power in the "unusual," halting, delayed manner that it did. This book puts the events of 1898 and the diplomacy of Teddy Roosevelt in a fascinating light. He restores the fame and reputation of one of the great American statesmen -- William Henry Seward. And I agree with the other reviews -- it's *very* well written with interesting, well chosen anecdotes.
